I noticed something strange in Pandora Tomorrow. It is a small white cross flashing in the dead middle of the screen. I am not sure, but I think it happens more often when I use the mouse. Something Unreal-Engine related, perhaps. I can't show it to you, because it doesn't appear on my ShadowPlay recordings. It also doesn't appear when I use a different d3d8.dll from the Widescreen Patches pack. As for the looks ... it's just two perfect white lines crossed, static, not changing with motion or anything. If you need proof, I'll try and record it with my digital camera.

Such additional rendering passes could only be done "inside dgVoodoo" (if we stick to D3D11 rendering techniques).External post processors can only see the final frame image, including 2D HUD.

While I don't want to include any game-specific thing into core dgVoodoo, for some time I'm thinking about an internal hooking layer,through which additional logic could be organized into separate modules (dlls).The rendering part to be hooked could be identified by some uniqe renderstates and some extra rendering could be added in those case.

UCyborg mentioned Mafia Water Shader Mod, that one does the same (with a custom D3D8.dll for API hooking).

I should whip up a proof-of-concept.

Dege,

Did you have the chance to look into Nvidia Gameworks source code/examples? Can Gameworks effects (HBAO, DOF, etc.) be used in dgVoodoo's upcoming internal hooking layer through separate modules (dlls)?

Yes, I'll have a look into it.The problem is, there are so many things to fix, that I cannot give it high priority. But, the first step, quickly whipping up an external "add-on" for dgVoodoo might not be a heavy time-consuming task.

With latest WIP i'm seeing a issue with the sky, never seen it before:(somehow is related to the mouse move, on original hardware this is not happening. I checked.)

Normal

As you can see smoke and clouds disappear. Strange.

If will look into this issue, are you willing to check why some lights/corona effect around light and shadows flicker/disappear/appear with mouse movement(these are happening with original hardware)? I'll post some save games if you 're willing. I would love to know whats happening ! Please !!!

Also , as others reported, there is a big plus sign/cross in the middle of the screen , flickering.

Hi Dege,I've tried SC1 in 4k, resolution forced in DgVoodoo and i got some issues:

Previuosly, there were 1-2 places in SC1 with certain issues when forcing resolution or MSAA applied. I know the feature can create problems but If you can keep the issues at minimum it would be awesome if not, well, it happens .

Imho there is no console available. If there is one i dont know about it. If you want to enable cheats the look it up on google. If you want to record some gameplay and replay it later(feature used alot in SC1 for benckmarking back in the day) you cant. There is no such feature.

With the console I can load up on-fly the OpenAL subsystem instead of the default DareAudio subsystem. I'm using the OpenAL Soft implementation (CPU only) and in SC1 it seems working well :p Need more testing.

Yup. The artwork and effects are really nice . You should give SCDA for xbox OG a try. I think it's the best of the series. Ok maybe SCCT it's the first.

Too bad there are no modders and devs interested in fixing the games,fully. For example SCPT has that nasty bug related to the color of the light. It really breaks the immersion.Dege could but he has other priorities. I dont blame the man,i really admire his dedication to his project. +1
